Technically a Tarot deck isn't a book, but if you find Tarot cards intriguing and you have a dash of culinary passion,
The Epicurean Tarot (U.S. Games, 2001) will be a great addition to your cookbook shelf.
The Epicurean Tarot's creator Corrinne Kenner has concocted 78 inventive and tasty recipes that take their own special meaning from each traditional Tarot card, and this particular deck is functionally oversized and laminated for hands-on kitchen adventures. Also included is a companion booklet for more detail on both the cards and recipes, with the only problem being is that a quick survey of Amazon and Barnes & Noble shows that
The Epicurean Tarot is out of print and the copies currently out there for purchase are pretty pricey. Good news if you want to part with your boxed set and sell it, but not so good if you're looking for an Epicurean Tarot of your own -- especially if you want to whip up some of Death's Stuffed Mushrooms and The Devil's Deviled Eggs (what else?) for your Halloween party.
